What is the name of your state? Illinois
My fiance and his ex-wife stipulated in their divorce/seperation papers that they would each seperately name their son (who is currently 6 years old) as their sole beneficiary until he reached the age of 22.
Now- after we marry, and potentially have children of our own, is it illegal to name me and/or our children as beneficiary along with his son from his first marriage? Is that divorce decree/seperation agreement so leagally binding that it has to be followed even if he remarries and has more children? Is there a legal process to follow, or can he just submit the papers for a change of beneficiaries?
THANKS!!
